At this point Peter didn't even care what Tony had told him, he had to do something, he needed to do something. To be Spiderman, not Peter.

It was a habit of him to go out as Spiderman when he felt bad, he did that a lot in the last weeks with May, then he moved in with Tony and stopped doing it, and now he was starting to do it again, he just hoped it wouldn't be for long.

"Welcome back, Peter. How are you?" greeted Karen.

"Karen? What did I tell you?" the kid asked, ignoring her question.

"Sorry. What's up, Peter?" she corrected, sounding annoyed but doing it anyways.

He webbed around the city, stopping every time he saw a crime and letting his frustration out with the bad guys. The adrenaline running rely through his veins, overcoming the other feelings. He felt free and like he could do  anything, this was why he loved being Spiderman- apart form helping-.

He was concerned, and angry, and sad, and wanted to cry; it was overwhelming, all that emotions, while trying to process what happened, he knew that guy did something to Wanda, she never reacted that way when she was reading someone's mind, and he swore he heard a threat as the boy went to help her up; he wasn't going to say that, it would just angry Tony more.

And that was other thing; he didn't know why Kevin meant that much to Tony, what was him? Just some secretary that was consuming all of Tony's time. He felt jealous, he was going to admit it, why did Kevin meant that much to Tony? That much that he fought the team defending the guy? That he fought him? It was the first time that Tony had really fought with him, the first time that he genuinely seemed mad; not even after the ferry or the time that he almost bled out in some random floor were that bad. He felt betrayed, after all Tony had done for him, after the adoption, after calling him 'Son', after everything they had gone through together, he was willingly to fight him because of some random guy that just showed up. Did he even ever meant that much to Tony?

"Peter? Are you okay? Your breath and heart rate is increasing rapidly, would you like help?"  she sounded concerned "Also I detect a decreasing in dopamine and other hormones"

"Ye-" he stopped, getting his mask off and whipping his tears "Yeah"

"Why don't you tell me what happened? Or do you pref-" Karen was cut off by a beep.

"Ms. Maximoff is requesting to talk with Peter" it was FRIDAY's voice. Wanda, she never called him while he was in the suit- no one apart from Tony ever called him to the suit-.

"Peter, would you like to accept the incoming call?" she asked, that was odd, Karen always accepted the calls, whether he wanted or not. Maybe it was only for Tony, he thought.

"Um- Yeah" he was glad that he had stopped his tears before Wanda called.

Suddenly, Wanda's- and a lot of others- preoccupied voices filled his ears making him cringe, his senses wanted to find a source for the voices, but it was a call, and all the voices that came from everywhere in the suit were making him confused, and he was getting a headache.

"Guys! My ears!" he said, instinctively putting his hands to his ears over the mask, which was worse.

"Sorry, sorry" he heard Rhodey said, but was quickly cut off by Scott.

"But do you know how preoccupied we were when we came and you weren't in your room?!"

"Sorry, guys. Just went out, doing a little patrol, you know" he responded, trying to seem okay even thought all the emotions that were swimming inside him.
